The Tate has, over the years, passed a tiny group of paintings to the National when their world greatness became apparent (National Gallery accused of risking \u2018bad blood\u2019 with Tate over 20th-century art, 10 September<\/a>). This was stopped in 2000, without any public discussion (despite my attempts to generate one). It should now be revived as it saves public money, avoids duplication, honours the Tate by recognising its acumen and leaves it free to find the great, lasting paintings of today.

I suggest that Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana\u2019s new party (Editorial, 8 September<\/a>) is called Real Labour. This name neatly sums up what I think they stand for, and will resonate with supporters. Then, as Starmer, Reeves and their party fade away, the party can gradually drop the \u201cReal\u201d.

Given that Tony Blair declared the New Labour \u201cproject\u201d would not be complete until the Labour party learned to love Peter Mandelson, can we assume that the said project is now dead and buried (Report, 11 September<\/a>)?

It\u2019s hard to shed a tear for Peter Mandelson<\/a>, especially given that he remains a member of the House of Lords for the rest of his life.
